The BiPAP autoSV device delivers optimal therapy for these complicated sleep-disordered breathing patients utilizing a multi-level algorithm. On a breath-by-breath basis, the revolutionary algorithm utilizes Respironics’ core technologies to adjust pressure support upon detecting a sleep event, such as an apnea, hypopnea or periodic breathing, to stabilize the patient’s breathing pattern. This algorithm also calculates the patient’s spontaneous breathing rate and will automatically trigger a breath for the patient should a sleep event occur. This device also combines Respironics’ proven BiPAP technology, Encore® Pro Data Management Software, Digital Auto-Trak™ Sensitivity, integrated alarms and optional integrated heated humidification.

BiPAP autoSV with Encore Pro SmartCard
The BiPAP autoSV sleep therapy system is specifically designed to be the best choice for managing complicated sleep-disordered breathing patients. It combines a number of technologies to recognize and react to changing pressure needs, and it's clinically proven to treat obstructive, central and complex apneas and hypopneas, along with periodic breathing.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)
OSA is the absence of airflow due to an occlusion in the upper airway that lasts at least 10 seconds in spite of continual effort to breathe. Severity is measured by the Apnea/Hypopnea Index (AHI) - the number of episodes per hour of sleep.
Central Sleep Apnea
Central Sleep Apnea is a pattern of breathing characterized by a normal deep inspiratory cycle interchanged with complete cessation of breathing. It is typically caused by problems with how the brain controls breathing rather than an occlusion of the airway.
Complex Sleep Apnea
Complex sleep apnea is a condition that occurs when a patient is identified as having OSA, but with the application of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) to eliminate the OSA, the patient develops Central Sleep Apnea. The cause of complex sleep apnea is not known at this time.
Periodic Breathing
Periodic breathing is defined as alternating periods of hyperventilation with waxing/waning tidal volume and periods of central hypopneas or apneas. There are many forms of periodic breathing, one of which is Cheyne-Stokes Respiration (CSR). CSR is characterized by a cyclic pattern of waxing and waning during periods of apnea, and deep, rapid breathing.
